The question on freedom of expression and the extent to which freedom can legitimately be used when religious and cultural sensitivities of certain groups are affected is debated. It is suggested that when dealing with issues that inflame the passions of religious groups or minority groups, the media and the state should adopt ethical codes or foreign policies that are balanced and ensure impartiality.
